a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Effect of removal of solvent at temperatures below their normal points with help of rotary evaporator should be determined.

Concept introduction: Rotary evaporator is laboratory apparatus that is used to remove solvents with help of reduced pressure. This is designed in such way that allows fast evaporation of solvents. A variable-speed motor is used for rotation of flask that has solvent to be evaporated.

b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Preference of rotary evaporation distillation over simple distillation should be determined.

Concept introduction: Rotary evaporator is laboratory apparatus that is used to remove solvents with help of reduced pressure. This is designed in such way that allows fast evaporation of solvents. A variable-speed motor is used for rotation of flask that has solvent to be evaporated.

Propose an efficient separation and recovery scheme for a mixture of toluene, benzoic acid, andaniline. Consider that steam distillation is not an option.
Give the equation for boiling point correction and explain the meaning of each variable. Why do we not need to correct boiling points when running distillation experiments at a simple school level?
Why would a solvent with a very high boiling point be inappropriate for a recrystallization?     Too much solvent would be lost to evaporation during the heating phase of the recrystallization     Impurities and the compound to be recrystallized would dissolve equally well in this solvent     A high boiling solvent would not dissolve the compound to be recrystallized     It would be difficult to remove residual solvent from the purified crystals
